Description
Splendid and elegant pair of sculptures depicting two roosters in a fighting pose, crafted with great sculptural mastery. The feathering, spread wings, and combs are precisely defined through chasing, giving the metal a pronounced luster and three-dimensionality.
The two figures display complementary attitudes: one in an elevated position with wings spread and the other with head bowed in a defensive/offensive stance. Perfect as a vintage decorative element, centerpiece, or collection piece for lovers of 20th-century decorative art.
